I would say, it took you twenty years to align with the frequency of having a better vision, which is logical since you couldn't imagine what seeing clear without spectacles felt like and probably held many doubts about the potential go wrongs of surgery. Congrats on your new pair of eyes, your brain must be delighted!

I look forward to this email every week. Such a beautiful collection of voices and artists I may not otherwise find. If my Substack, Deeply Felt, ever feels like a fit for The Weekender, I'd be so delighted!

Not everything starts with a dream. Some things come to our life because we are meant to experience them. For those who think it's too late...

Thank you for addressing this important topic, today. We, knock on wood, have not had a highly publicized school shooting recently. Our collective short memories and desire for instant gratification seem to prevent discussion of school shootings except as a reaction.

Your article reminds me, proactive, realistic prevention is possible. So often, society’s problems do not have a clear answer. This is not one of those. We know what to do. We can protect our children. We must protect our children.

I've spent the better part of two decades trying to get my wife into baseball. lol

I love the nuances of the game. Where the pitcher throws, inside or outside, up or down, fast or slow. It is really like a chess match.

Sure, there are big home runs here and there but it's those little things that make the game. How the infield lines up, based on the pitcher and the hitter at the plate.

The way the hitter swings to put it right over the second baseman's head but shallow enough that the outfielders can't get to it quickly enough for an out.

All that stuff is magical.
